Metro Washington Council afl-cio

Hundreds of low-wage workers rallied in Virginia’s state capitol on Wednesday, advocating for driver licenses for all, healthcare for all, and a $15 minimum wage. And thousands of union activists flooded the West Virginia statehouse that same day as Republican lawmakers wasted no time in attacking workers' rights, making a right-to-work-for-less bill the first measure introduced in the Senate as the state legislature opened on Jan. 13. photo courtesy Craig Simpson/UFCW 400
